Technical field

This disclosure relates to measurement gap, and measured more particularly, to the cell specific group based on each carrier component Clearance mode.

Background technology

Wireless mobile telecommunication technology is using various standards and agreement come in node (for example, transfer station) and wireless device (example Such as, mobile device) or user equipment (UE) between transmit data.Some wireless devices are in downlink (DL) transmission using just Hand over frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) and communicated in up-link (UL) transmission using single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA). Carrying out the standard of signal transmission and agreement using OFDM (OFDM) includes third generation partner program (3GPP) length Phase evolution (LTE), the standard (for example, 802.16e, 802.16m) of IEEE (IEEE) 802.16 (lead to by industry Often be referred to as WiMAX (World Interoperability for Microwave Access, WiMax)) and the standards of IEEE 802.11 (industry is generally referred to as WiFi)。

In 3GPP wireless access networks (RAN) LTE system, node can be the universal terrestrial radio access network of evolution (E-UTRAN) node B (node B, node B, eNodeB or eNB of enhancing for being also typically expressed as evolution) and radio net control The combination of device (RNC) processed, it is communicated with UE.Downlink (DL) transmission can be from access point/node or base station (example Such as, macrocell equipment, eNodeB, eNB or other similar network equipment) UE communication is arrived, and up-link (UL) transmission can be with It is the communication from wireless device to node.In LTE, data can by physical down link sharing channel (PDSCH) from ENodeB is sent to UE.It can confirm that data are received using physical uplink control channel (PUCCH).Downlink is believed Road and uplink channel can use time division duplex (TDD) or FDD (FDD).

Because the developing for technology updated in radio communication will ensure that number of frequencies with higher demand, future network deployment Continue to increase.Number of cells and frequency needs are almost certain to increase.Macrocell network equipment, the cell network equipment or tool There is this kind of network equipment of other of the overlay area smaller than macrocell equipment or lower power capability (for example, small eNB, micro- ENB, pico- eNB, femto eNB, family eNB (for example, HeNB)) it can also be introduced into double specified in 3GPP versions 12 Reconnect feature.User equipment (UE) (for example, the network equipment, mobile device, wireless device etc.) therefore it can connect two simultaneously Individual or multiple cells.

In order to promote to have the smooth network of high Quality of experience (QoE) to change (for example, cell switching, redirection, gravity treatment Deng), UE must have measurement peripheral cell and the ability of related data is provided to network.It there may be the net of many frequencies Under network deployment scenario, some frequency carriers can be the Microcell of the back-to-back deployment in dense network deployment.However, for example, Due to the heavy load in macrocell, UE may not be switched to these cells.Because network design density is big, UE may not root These cells are accessed according to UE position.If UE misses the chance of measurement cell frequency carrier, it may not have Available backup network.In addition, if it misses the measurement to macro-layer, then UE may not switch and call fast enough It may go offline.

Fig. 1 shows example, non-limiting wireless communications environment 100, and it can pass through base station network equipment (for example, eNB) Communication between UE configures to promote or enable one or more measurement gaps, so that LTE CA support increased quantity Frequency carrier or carrier component.Wireless communications environment 100 can include multiple cordless communication networks, each cordless communication network With respective coverage areas domain.The overlay area of some cordless communication networks can be with overlapping so that one or more mobile devices can To be covered with any one overlapping network equipment of region to service.

Wireless communications environment 100 includes one or more cellular broadcast service devices or macrocell network equipment 102,104 (examples Such as, base station, eNB, access point (AP) etc.) and one or more cell network equipment or AP (for example, small eNB, micro- eNB, pico- ENB, femto eNB, family eNB (HeNB) or Wi-Fi nodes) 106,108, they are deployed in wireless communications environment 100 simultaneously And provide service for one or more UE equipment 110,112,114,116 or 118.Each cordless communication network is (for example, honeycomb is wide Broadcast server 102,104 and the cell network equipment 106, one or more network equipments 108) can be included (for example, network is set The set of standby (ND)), they are operated to handle the network of one or more UE equipment 110,112,114,116 or 118 together Flow.For example, macrocell ND 102,104 can include the set of the network equipment (it is cellular network device).In another example In, for example, the cell network equipment 106,108 can be including the use of than the 102 and 104 smaller area of coverage of macrocell network equipment The set for the network equipment that domain is operated.

Although ND 106 and 108 is described as the cell network equipment, they can also be the enabled equipment of Wi-Fi Or WLAN (WLAN) equipment, and macrocell network equipment, the cell network equipment or be for example operable as base station, The ND of some other types of eNB or the assisted cell network equipment.Or one or more of macrocell ND 102 and 104 Can be the cell network equipment or the different radio access technologies for example operated using different frequency carrier wave (RAT) Other ND.

As illustrated, each in one or more Wi-Fi access points 106,108 can have respective service region 120、122.In addition, each in one or more cellular broadcast service devices or macrocell ND 102,104 can have it is corresponding Coverage 124,126.It will be appreciated, however, that wireless communications environment 100 is not limited to the implementation.For example, with corresponding clothes Any number of AP or ND in business region can be deployed in wireless communications environment 100.In addition it is also possible in wireless communications environment Affix one's name to any number of cellular broadcast service device and respective service region in 100 inside.

, can also be in wireless communications environment 100 although illustrate only five UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 Affix one's name to any number of UE equipment in inside.For example, UE equipment can include system, subscri er unit, subscriber station, mobile station, mobile dress Put, wireless terminal, equipment, mobile device, distant station, remote terminal, access terminal, user terminal, terminal, radio communication are set Standby, radio communication device, user agent, user equipment or other ND part or all of function.Mobile device can be honeycomb Phone, wireless phone, Session initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, smart phone, functional telephone, WLL (WLL) are stood, are individual Personal digital assistant (PDA), laptop computer, handheld communication devices, handheld computing device, net book, tablet personal computer, satellite without Line electricity, data card, wireless modem card, and/or another processing equipment for being communicated by wireless system.This Outside, UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 can include the function as described in more fully herein, and can be additionally configured to Dual link equipment, wherein one or more UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 may be coupled to different RAT (for example, LTE With WLAN or other combination) more than one eNB or ND.

In one aspect, cellular broadcast service device or macrocell ND 102,104 and cell ND 106,108 can be monitored Radio condition (for example, by using corresponding measurement assembly) around it.For example, macrocell ND 102,204 and cell ND 106th, each in 108 can be by the network traffic load that performs network diagnosing process to determine on its corresponding network.Make For example, during network monitoring process, macrocell ND 102,104；Cell ND 106,108；Or UE equipment 110,112, 114th, 116,118 its radio environment can be scanned to determine network performance statistics or network parameter (for example, frequency, SNR, letter Number quality, QoS, QoE, load, congestion, signal rate etc.).Can during the network diagnosing process or measurement carried out by UE equipment With detection and 106,108 associated various parameters of macrocell ND 102,104 and cell ND, it is such as, but not limited to, frequency band, Scrambler, common signal channel pilot power, across the bandwidth of each network, Universal Mobile Telecommunications System terrestrial wireless it is electrically accessed reception signal Frequency carrier priority of strength indicator and particular cell group (for example, normal group or reduction group) etc..

In exemplary scene, UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 can pass through macrocell ND 102,104 or slight One in area ND 106,108 is come by network service.Because user equipment equipment moves in wireless communications environment 100, accordingly User equipment equipment can be movable into and out the overlay area of associated service network.For example, when user is corresponding by its During UE equipment transmission/reception communication, user may just walking, ride in an automobile, used during taking train, in densely populated urban area Mobile around (for example, big city), the wherein movement may cause mobile device to be moved between various cordless communication networks. In this case, it is beneficial that network traffics are routed to target ND (for example, switching) by UE from service ND, to continue to lead to Believe (for example, avoiding call drop) or promote the unloading for load distribution or other efficiency purposes.However, with the ND to be measured and The increase of the quantity of frequency carrier, can UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 may have in the time measurement distributed The problem of each carrier wave is measured in gap.Because UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 must measure the load of increased quantity Ripple (for example, 32 or more), so these measurement gaps may introduce more delays.

In one example, if two frequency carriers of different frequency in network environment 100 be present (for example, being used for LTE CA carrier component (CC)), wherein for example 40 milliseconds (ms) can be measurement gap, or for example have some other gaps, Such as 40ms, 80ms or other gaps.Because two or more CC be present, for example, when supporting carrier aggregation, UE equipment 110, 112nd, 114,116,118 can be operated on a carrier wave as service frequency, and it is attached therefore to would only need to measurement one Load ripple.So, UE (for example, UE 110,112,114,116,118) can be switched to another carrier wave to be carried out to it per 40ms Measurement.This means for example, UE 110 can measurement be once using every 40ms (receiving the cycle (MGRP) as measurement gap).Each Measure in sample, measurement can include a pair net related to frequency band, the network equipment of operation (communication) frequency band or channel condition The arbitrary network measurement of network condition, for example, signal intensity, channel quality, signal noise interference ratio (SINR), received signal strength Other surveys of indicator (RSSI) or such as Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) etc Amount.UE may then based on one or more measurement generations for the transmission path transmitted channel condition information (CSI), one Or multiple CQIs (CQI) etc..

If will however, UE equipment 110 on network or in communication range (being communicably coupled to UE equipment 110) be present Two or more additional carriers of measurement, then may have three CC on network, can be enterprising at its including UE equipment 110 The downlink transmission of row data and the service frequency carrier wave of communication.For example, in the first measurement gap of gap sequence, UE is set Standby 110 can measure second frequency (for example, service frequency is first frequency), and in the second measurement gap or subsequent measurement In gap, UE equipment 110 can measure different CC the 3rd frequency.This means the every 80ms of UE equipment only may be surveyed once CC is measured, this there may be longer delay compared with only needing to measure a frequency carrier, and wherein total delay must with UE equipment 110 The number of carrier wave that must be measured is directly proportional.Therefore, 30 two or more carrier waves will imply that about 32 × 40ms (measurement gaps Repetition/reception the cycle) aperature delay, with obtain one or more different ND one or more specific frequencies (between frequency or In frequency) a sample.This long delay may throw into question for UE, UE is possibly can not be enough or effective Measurement frequency in time frame.This long delay may also produce the further problem for following aspect, for example, network is cut Change, and the condition based on UE equipment 110 determines which cell or cell ND are optimal in time enough.

On the other hand, therefore, it is the time measurement gap for the carrier wave that enhancing belongs to normal performance group the purpose of network, normally Performance group can receive more measurements compared with reducing performance group.It is the one of which group that network, which can distribute which carrier wave or ND, Part.For example, normal performance group can have macrocell ND 202 and 204, and cell ND can be had by reducing performance group 106、108；However, it is possible to by the specified ND such as network or ND equipment (for example, macrocell ND 102) and associated frequency carrier Any mixing.The ND or UE of network can be strengthened in various embodiments so as to realize up to 32 components for DL and UL The carrier aggregation of carrier wave, and further realize and support about five frequency carriers or more frequency carrier simultaneously.Therefore, pin To CA additionally or alternatively, CA two measurement performance groups, the various specific cell measurement gap patterns for CA are disclosed, To support up to 32 CC in CA.

With reference to figure 2, show from eNB (for example, ND 102,104) instruction UE (for example, UE equipment 110) and be directed to carrier wave Measurement quantity identifier (ID) example.In radio resource (RRM) measurement in LTE, UE 110 performs to it The frequency carrier or frequency band of measurement can be configured by measurement object (for example, measObject).For example, can be in 3GPP specifications Defined in maximum quantity measurement object ID maxObjectID 202.In principle, each radio frequency (RF) carrier wave configuration is single Individual measurement object.Number in view of for up to 32 CC estimated version 13CA, meeting the measurement object ID of purpose in theory Amount can be added to bigger value (for example, 64).On the other hand, the maximum represented by data field 202 is still enough.Can Can exist when UE 110 is configured with up to 32 CC, eNB can export from the measurement report of a CC in same frequency band Certain situation for the necessary information of the purpose of CC management.For example, such solution can at least be applied to work as carrier wave B Carrier wave B and C polymerization during with C in same frequency band.Correspondingly, it is possible to reduce required measurement object ID, and currency can To be enough.

ID 202 includes 32 CC in a manner of the measurement as specified object ID.When network increases measurement object to adapt to During more than 32 CC (for example, maximum integer 64 is specified such as in data ID 204maxObjectID), network can also configure more More measurement objects is to be linked to measurement configuration (MeasGapConfig), and 32 possibility are inadequate wherein.Therefore, in order to adapt to The increase of the quantity of carrier frequency, eNB ND 102 can provide the suggestion increase of about 64 CC or other quantity, and this is only It is an example.For example, data ID 202 or 204 (such as or some other increase) can be applied to processor by E-UTRAN So that it is guaranteed that when UE 110 receives measConfig, it include for each service frequency measObject and maxObjectID。

With reference to figure 3, show according to various embodiments and the example of the measurement gap pattern 300 with reference to figure 1.Measurement gap Pattern 300 can be operated for example with 40ms or 80ms measurement gap repetition/reception cycle.For example, measurement gap pattern 300 can be realized with individual server (service) frequency band, and constant clearance duration for wherein each gap is about The operation of 6ms single radio frequency (RF) chain (not shown), it can be supplied to UE equipment by eNB (for example, ND 102) (for example, 114).For example, RF chains (for example, transtation mission circuit component/receiving circuit component) can include one or more treatment groups Part (for example, wave filter, digital signal processor, amplifier or other assemblies for processing data signal), it can be covered The RF spectrum of various scopes.UE 114 need not utilize all RF chains (for example, the RF chains 402,404 shown in Fig. 4；Or other are logical Letter component) to carry out inter-frequency measurements to some frequency component carrier waves by measurement gap pattern 300.

As described above, the duration in each gap can be about 6ms or other duration, it can be by Fig. 1's ENB (for example, ND 102) applies or is configured to UE equipment 114.There is no data transfer in this 6ms gap.However, UE equipment 114 can also have CA abilities, it means that UE equipment 114 can be operated with more than one RF chains simultaneously.Therefore, utilize More than one RF chains (for example, 402 and 404), UE equipment 114 can be used to measure and have data simultaneously by using some RF Transmit to increase throughput gain.Therefore, provided for radio resources management very close to each other (RRM) measurement can bring up to 15% Throughput gain (for example, 40ms MGRP), it is therefore desirable for improving UE equipment performances, particularly there are a large amount of CC in CA Under.In order to realize the advantage, for example, as discussed further below, measurement gap can preferably be only applied to related service Cell (that is, the serving cell operated on the RF circuits of measurement correlated frequency) or specific CC.

Measurement gap pattern 300 (that is, 40ms MGRP, 80ms MGRP or other MGRP) can be by network configuration to UE 114.The network equipment (for example, eNB 102) is it is contemplated that UE 114 once performs one frequency band/component carrier of measurement to meet to survey Amount requires, and all frequency band/CC during measurement gap will not have downlink transmission.For example, network can have can Five frequencies so that service band is frequency band A 302, and it can be the service frequency that UE is easy to attended operation.For example, its He can include frequency band X 304, frequency band Y 306, frequency band Z 308 and frequency band L 310 by frequency band, and it can each include different components Carrier wave.Black gap represents do not have measurement to be performed (for example, not shown in Fig. 3) here, dark shadow gaps (example Such as, gap 312) represent that the measurement of frequency band here can be performed, and shallower shadow gaps or hash gap (for example, 314) no data transfer can occur here for instruction.

Based on measurement gap pattern 300, UE equipment 114 can perform in the one 40 millisecond of gap 316 to CC X 304 Measurement, and there is no data transfer on service CC A 302.Each CC can for example represent the frequency CC or frequency for DL or UL Rate scope.Then in ensuing 40 milliseconds of measurement gaps 318, for example, UE equipment 114 can measure CC Y 306.Then, In the 3rd measurement gap 320, UE equipment 114 can measure CC Z 308, and then be measured in the 4th measurement gap 322 CC L 310.Then, UE equipment 114 can circulate to measure CC X 304 again again, and the wherein order of measurement gap can be with Continuously repeat.

Referring to Fig. 4, CA scenes 400 and example UE 114 example are shown, wherein for RF chains 1 402, UE equipment 114 can for example cover different frequency CC, such as frequency band X and Y (for example, CC X 304 and CC Y 306).Each He of RF chains 1 402 RF chains 2 404 can include the one or more assemblies of signal processing chain, for example, it can include wave filter and for increasing Wave filter and further hardware of the processing for the RF signals of data.Because frequency may be very high, not all RF chains can once cover all frequency CC.For example, RF chains 1 402 can only cover CC X 304 (for example, being provided by 3GPP The optional frequency scope for DL or UL) and CC Y 306.In addition, RF chains 2 404 can only cover different CC, such as frequency band Z 308 and frequency band L 310, wherein each RF chains 1 402 and RF chains 2 404 can cover some frequency CC of frequency spectrum (for example, component Carrier wave) or bandwidth, wherein component carrier can for example refer to the specific bandwidth of frequency band or frequency spectrum.

Referring now to Figure 5, show for the another of the measurement gap configuration information element of version 14 and other future versions The example of one measurement gap pattern 500, so as to reduce measurement delay by one or more network equipments on network.With figure As 3 measurement gap pattern 300, the measurement delay in measurement gap pattern 500 is occurred with the pattern of four measurements to obtain The measurement sample of each frequency band (for example, CC X, Y, Z and L).Therefore, UE equipment 114 can obtain the one of each CC per 160ms Individual sampling, it is considered as measurement delay.In measurement gap pattern 300, it is assumed that UE equipment 114 can use a service frequency Rate measures CC X 304 and Y 306, while measure CC Z and L using second service frequency.

In the first measurement gap 502, UE equipment 114 can be measured CC X 304 and be used using RF chains 1 402 RF chains 2 404 measure CC Z 308, while measure.Similarly, in the second measurement gap 504, UE equipment 114 Can be using RF chains 1 402 to measure CC Y, and measure CC L 310 using RF chains 2 404.The pattern is then for surveying Measure gap 508 and 510 and repeat itself.Now in each measurement gap, UE equipment 114 can measure two CC rather than one CC, and measure delay therefore be cut in half, because UE equipment 114 can utilize two RF chains simultaneously.For example, this In the case of the measurement samples of all frequency bands or CC is only obtained using two measurement gaps, without four measurement gaps.

Additionally or alternatively, network may assume that UE equipment 114 only has a RF chain rather than two, and measures and want Ask and be also based only upon a RF chain, it will not utilize the network equipment or UE abilities unless ensuring the network equipment (for example, the Hes of UE 114 ENB 102) between abundant communication.Therefore, gap configuration can be added further in 3GPP standards (TS 36.331) with For further promoting the communication based on the measurement of CA particular measurements pattern.Substitute and be used only existing 0 and 1, i.e. 40ms and 80ms, The additional information as being shown as CA-gap0 602 in Fig. 6 can be added, it is as the measurement gap on information element (IE) 600 Configure the part of (MeasGapConfig).

Fig. 6 shows measurement gap configuration or MeasGapConfig example, and it causes measurement as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 8 Clearance mode can be transmitted and realized between ND (for example, (one or more) eNB and (one or more) UE).Data slot (data slot) or project CA-gap0 602 indicate the gap repetition period 604 (it can be 40ms and 80ms) and with use In optional or extension in the future one or more standby (spare).In addition, MeasGapConfig IE CA-gap0 602 is counted Measurement gap skew 606 can also be included according to project, it indicates when gap starts to be used for further to measure.CA-gap0 602 Frequency band measurement list (bandMeasurementList) (or supporting CC data acquisition systems) 608 is further indicated, it includes UE should Which measurement frequency band measured using the measurement gap.For example, reducing performance group or normal performance group can measure by using frequency band List 608 some frequency bands that more frequently or fully instruction needs to measure are divided and specified.

It is can correspond to for example, clearance offsets (gapOffset) describe gp0 values with measurement gap repetition/reception week Phase (MGRP)=40ms clearance mode Id " 0 " clearance offsets.Gp1 clearance offsets can correspond between MGRP=80ms The clearance offsets of gap pattern " 1 ".These clearance offsets patterns ID can be used for specifying the measurement gap pattern that will be applied, and such as exist Defined in the specification of version 13 or more highest version, for example exist for example, its (for example, by UE 114 or eNB 102) is provided The information for the selection to be determined between ID.For example, ca-gap0 602 is included for example defined in TS 36.133 GapReptitionPeriod 604, and as based on the selected clearance mode repetition period (or MGRP) (gapRepetitionPeriod) or for example by the measurement gap pattern repetition period defined in 3GPP specifications TS36.133 GapOffset values gapOffset-r13606.Finally, bandMeasurementList 608 is specified or instruction can make With identical gap period or MGRP come frequency band/CC for measuring.

Alternatively, Fig. 7 is shown for 3GPP versions 14 and its future version for carrier aggregation (for example, CA- MeasGapConfig-r13ID) the 700 measurement configuration of the replacement with the measurement gap pattern based on each CC (MeasGapConfig)IE.First selection is probably to increase another measurement gap in existing IE, as provided in Fig. 6 , although CA 700 new measurement gap configuration CA-MeasGapConfig-r13IE can use at least some and Fig. 6 IE 600 similar contents are discussed.For example, the gap repetition period 702 can be 40ms and 80ms, and be used for it is optional or One or more standby of extension in the future.In addition, MeasGapConfig-r13 IE can also include measurement gap skew 704, It can indicate when gap starts further to measure, and based on the selected clearance mode repetition period (for example, by eNB 102 selections, or the selection based on UE 114 are reconfigured by eNB 102).Frequency band measures list (bandMeasurementList) 706 also include which UE 114 should measure using the measurement gap or measurement gap pattern Measure frequency band (or CC).

Fig. 8 shows the down link data efficiency that can realize the raising between the network equipment (for example, eNB and UE) Another measurement gap pattern 800.As described above, UE services CC is CC A 302 and B 502 as described above.RF chains 1 402 (RF_1) service CC A 302 are also supported in addition to supporting X 304 and Y 306.RF chains 2 404 (RF_2) are except supporting Z 308 With also support service CC B 502 outside L 310.For example, therefore UE equipment 114 can use RF chains 1 402 and RF chains 2 404 Both measure to CC X 304 and Z 308 simultaneously in the first measurement gap time slot 504.Similarly, UE equipment 114 may be used also To be measured in the 3rd measurement gap time slot 508 to CC Y 306 and L 310 simultaneously.In the situation of identical measurement performance Under, UE equipment 114 now can be in the second measurement gap time slot 506 and the 4th measurement gap time slot 510 in CC A 302 and B Promotion or enabled downlink transmission on 502.Here, it is not required to for these specific CC or service band A 302 and B 502 Want the downlink gap in data.

Therefore, measurement gap pattern 800 can be used as the specific clearance modes of CA by the network equipment, with other measurement gaps Pattern (for example, as implied above) is compared to raising down link data efficiency.Therefore, network or ND can be configured and such as above-mentioned accompanying drawing The similar data pattern of shown UE equipment 114.However, substitute allow UE equipment 114 using RF chains (for example, 402,404 or its He) more measurements are produced, data can be sent down to UE equipment 114 by network during some clearance modes, as The folding of configuration based on UE abilities (RF chains 402,404 and the covering of their own CC frequency spectrums) between UE 114 and eNB 102 Inner feelings.For example, for based on for example specific CC or CC combine which CC measurement gaps pattern (delay of reduction or gap, gapless, Compared with long gap, the data efficiency/transmission improved or its combination) it is most desired, from eNB 102 or other network equipments or Entity determine can based on network condition, have UE abilities request or state report (for example, the support CC from UE 114 Data set).

Fig. 9, which is shown, can utilize two advantages discussed above (by one or more network equipments (for example, eNB 102nd, ND 14 or other ND) the reduction of delay and the raising of data efficiency/transmission) the another of measurement gap pattern 900 show Example.Previously discussed Fig. 8 measurement gap pattern 800 improve data transfer with allow data some DATA REASONING gaps it Between by downlink, for example, every a measurement gap or measurement gap time slot.Measurement gap pattern 900 make it possible to Small―gap suture or small―gap suture mode approach carry out data transmission, while it is continuous to keep the measurement of down link data and frequency band.

In measurement gap pattern 900, UE equipment 114 can for example indicate what it or each RF/ communication chains can be supported Frequency band/CC, while allowing different RF chains that there is down link data, wherein compromise is to interrupt 902 and 904.For example, net Network, the network equipment 102 or other network equipments can in the measurement gap 504,506,508 and 510 with small―gap suture pattern and in The disconnected time is transmitted on RF chains 1 or 2 (for example, RF chains 402 and 404) are substituted.UE equipment 114 can be configured as servicing Operated on frequency band or CC A 302 and B 502.For example, when UE equipment 114 measures frequency band X 304 using RF chains 1 204, Service band A 302 does not have data transfer.However, UE equipment 114 still can use to have during RF is tuned interrupts 902 Hes Down link data in the 904 frequency acceptance band B of RF chains 2404.

In each measurement gap 504,506,508 and 510, UE equipment 114 can with one frequency band of one-shot measurement (for example, X, Y, Z or L), it means that UE equipment 114 still there is an idle RF chain can receive data.Therefore, if UE equipment 114 are carrying out CA, then what network can be done is that can used with UE equipment 114 or idle RF chains are corresponding or can cover Frequency band in send data.Occur simultaneously with data transfer due to measuring, so in the presence of about 1ms interruption, it is with Fig. 9 fork-shaped Square represents that network will be unable to communicating downlink data here.Therefore, measurement gap pattern 900 is referred to as small―gap suture mould Formula because when UE equipment 114 just be tuned in RF chains when, if network eNB or other ND are sending data or transmission is descending Link data, then its created in other frequency bands interference data interruption.Within 6ms time delays, network can only actually be sent out Send 4ms data.In each message gap, the remainder of accompanying drawing is the same situation.The sky of Web vector graphic UE equipment 114 Not busy RF sends data.

With reference now to Figure 10 and Figure 11, show for the small―gap suture configuration for realizing such as Fig. 9 or measurement gap pattern IE 900 IE 1000 and 1100 additional standard modification or data acquisition system.For example, can be submitted in TS 36.331 modification with In realize measurement gap configure.CA-gap0 1002 data slot or instruction include gapRepititionPeriod 1004, GapOffset-r13 1006, service band (servingBand) 1008 and boolean's small―gap suture (Boolean minigap) 1010.If small―gap suture is arranged into true or effective, network for example will be sent out by those idle RF to UE 114 RF chains Data are sent, if not true or effective, then it will not carry out data transmission during those data link transmissions and UE will More measurements are performed to reduce measurement delay.

Figure 11 provides the entirely different IE of small―gap suture measurement pattern alternative exemplary, rather than modification 3GPP standards TS Existing IE in 36.331.

With reference to figure 12, the instantiation procedure stream of method 1200 or the computer-readable medium including executable instruction is shown, Wherein the executable instruction performs this method in response to performing the network equipment for causing to include one or more processors or system Operation.

At 1202, process streams include identifying measurement object identifier by the one or more processors of the network equipment (ID) (measObject) and measurement gap pattern.Measurement gap pattern can be for example according to by one or more of the network equipment Individual processor identifies the instruction of the UE ability relevant with radio frequency (RF) band capability (for example, single RF chains or multiple RF Chain and the covering of respective frequency band) determine.It can further be performed and identified by the control circuit component of the network equipment Journey, so as to identify that (it includes being used for selection/choosing between the different gap repetition period for MeasGapConfig IE, clearance offsets Go out to support the information of the gap repetition period of carrier aggregation measurement clearance mode), the gap repetition period and support list of frequency bands (it indicates the first band set that more measured compared with second band set).

At 1204, process streams continue, by the one or more processors of the network equipment via one or more Radio resource control (RRC) signal sends or received measObject and measurement gap pattern.Pass through the transmission of the network equipment Circuit unit is based in instruction transmission or receive information element (IE) via one or more radio resource controls (RRC) signal Measurement gap configuration (MeasGapConfig).

In other embodiments, process streams can also include using by the control circuit component of the network equipment MeasGapConfig IE identify clearance offsets, gap repetition period, service band (servingBand) and based on one Individual or multiple down link datas are small―gap suture or full gap (it is larger measurement gap compared with the small―gap suture).

Instruction or report, desired realization or resource request, process streams based on UE abilities can be according to as by networks Or the path A or B of the example measurement gap configuration of the different measurement gap patterns of eNB configurations is operated.Path A can continue with Reduce and interrupt, and path B can continue both increases to provide less break period and data flow.It is as follows, it is based on One or more network equipments postpone the demand of the balance between demand data to reducing, and option path A can be along path C Further promote.All optional paths can also according to UE ability (for example, with RF chain or more RF chains, and The frequency band frequency that can each cover in operation) selected.

With reference to figure 13, example measurement gap mode treatment flow 1300 is shown, it is according to selection measurement gap pattern (example Such as, by the MeasGapConfig IE 600 or 700 of pattern 500) process streams A continues from Figure 12 handling process 1200.

At 1302, process streams 1300 continue at selection course stream A, wherein by the first radio circuit (for example, RF 420) component promotes the second band at first band measurement and the second measurement gap at the first measurement gap to measure to chain 1.

At 1304, process streams 1300 continue, wherein being promoted by the second radio circuit components at the first measurement gap The 3rd frequency band measurement and the second measurement gap at the 4th frequency band measurement.

Then, then process streams 1300 can terminate or further realize Figure 14 additional procedure step C.At 1402, Process streams 1400 can also include providing instruction (for example, MeasGapConfig IE 600 or 700 of pattern 800), so that In the first radio circuit components and the second nothing during additional measurement gap between first measurement gap and the second measurement gap The downlink transmission of data is realized on line electricity circuit unit.In this case, RF chains 1 402 (RF_1 or RF_Y)) except Support also to support service CC A 302 outside Fig. 8 X 304 and Y 306.RF chains 2 404 (RF_2 or RF_Z) are except supporting Z Service CC B 502 are also supported outside 308 and L 310.For example, UE equipment 114 therefore can be in the first measurement gap time slot 504 It is middle simultaneously to measure CC X 304 and Z 308 using both RF chains 1 402 and RF chains 2 404.Similarly, UE equipment 114 can also measure to CC Y 306 and L 310 simultaneously in the 3rd measurement gap time slot 508.In identical measurement performance In the case of, UE equipment 114 can promote now in the second measurement gap time slot 506 and the 4th measurement gap time slot 510 and Realize the downlink transmission on CC A 302 and B 502.Here, these specific CC or service band A 302 and B 502 The downlink gap in data is not needed.Figure 15 is shown includes small according to this paper various aspects or being directed to for embodiment The path B according to selection Figure 12 of the measurement gap pattern of gap method 1500.Method 1500 can be represented for example with can be with By the measurement gap pattern of the MeasGapConfig IE 1000 or 1100 of pattern 900 small―gap sutures indicated.

At 1502, method 1500 includes promoting first to survey by the first radio circuit components (for example, RF chains 1 402) The first band for measuring gap location is measured, and the second band measurement at the second measurement gap, and the second measurement gap and the 4th are surveyed Measure the downlink transmission of the first service frequency band of gap location.

At 1504, method 1500 continues, wherein promoting the by the second radio circuit components (such as RF chains 2 404) The downlink transmission of the data on second service frequency band at one measurement gap, the 3rd frequency band at the 3rd measurement gap are surveyed Amount, and the 4th frequency band measurement at the 4th measurement gap.

In one embodiment, the downlink transmission of data can include the small―gap suture pattern of break period.In data Downlink transmission during can tolerate one or more gaps, to keep data flow continuous and frequency band measurement is used as small Gap pattern is carried out.For example, each small―gap suture can include the pause in downlink transmission, to be transformed into RF service frequencies Band or chain.In this case, RF chains 1 402 (the first radio circuit components) can suspend at the 3rd measurement gap (no data links and measurement) operation, and RF chains 2 404 (the second radio circuit components) can be in second measurement gap Place is suspended to operate by DL data and measurement with identical.Then sequence between two RF chains can circulate.

With reference to figure 16, show for by the measurement gap pattern being configured, (as disclosed above or other are surveyed at UE Amount gap) it is used to configuring and reconfiguring the signaling that measurement gap configures by the network equipment (for example, eNB, macrocell, cell etc.) Another example modes of stream.The process of allocating and measuring gap and various measurement gap patterns can be based on different CC or UE abilities, Including the feedback from UE.For example, flow chart 1600 is shown 1603 from eNB 1601 to UE (for example, the eNB 102 in Fig. 1 To UE 114) measurement gap configuration signal.As described in detail herein, to UE 1603 measurement gap configuration signal 1602 One or more instructions or the parameter of measurement gap pattern can be included.

In this case, do not know UE abilities (for example, the total amount or number of RF circuits (RF communication chains) in eNB 1601 Amount；Specific covering frequency band (one or more) ability；By the CC covered of UE 1603 or certain frequency scope or with a CC phase Than the combination of the CC in broader bandwidth；Or parameter/ability of other communication correlations) in the case of, eNB1 601 can be such as The frequency band measurement gap configuration of measurement gap pattern 300 with Fig. 3 is provided, or refers to other accompanying drawings discussed in this article Another measurement gap pattern of description, for example, with the small―gap suture small―gap suture (NCSG) of control (network), compared with long gap, continuously The measurement gap pattern 500,800,900 of gap or other relevant parameters (for example, the field description being discussed herein).

In response to receiving with measurement gap mode parameter (for example, clearance offsets (gapOffset/gapOffset- R13 or future version clearance offsets), offset, the duration/measurement gap repetition period (gapRepetitionPeriod), list of frequency bands (bandMeasurementList)/CC lists, service band/CC (servingBand), small―gap suture/small gap compared with the normal or larger gap small―gap suture of control (for example, network) or Other as discussed herein measurement gap mode parameters) measurement gap configuration, UE 1603 can further enter at 1604 Row communication, so as to respond eNB 1601.Communication signaling 1604 can be referred to as supporting CC data acquisition systems or support measurement frequency band row Table, wherein any parameter described herein can be received at 1602 measurement gap pattern measurement gap configuration before, Asking afterwards or in the support CC data acquisition systems at front and rear signaling response 1604 or other feedback responses by eNB 1601 Ask selecting, indicating or changing.

In one example, UE 1603 can be carried at 1604 using UE abilities as a part for support CC data acquisition systems ENB 1601 is supplied, determines to be used for such as measurement as nearby frequency bands, DL data frequency to service UE 1603 eNB 1601 Band, the component carrier of service band or other purposes are so as to generating matching somebody with somebody for the measurement gap pattern of one or more measurement reports Put/reconfigure.Then parameter and configuration data can be transmitted at 1602 or weighed at 1606 together with different pieces of information It is new to transmit so as to change measurement gap pattern.

In some cases, UE 1603 can determine compromise between the efficiency and continuity of reception data that it can root The change used of UE resources according to UE abilities and at preset time and change.Therefore, can be based at UE 1603 just Bigger data downlink transmission it is expected in the threshold value resource value of processed given application or resource, in such case Under, a type of measurement gap pattern can be better than another measurement gap pattern, can utilize different CC, the energy based on UE Different parameters of power or as discussed herein to original measurement clearance mode or other changes of relevant parameter or preference.Example Such as, in order to ensure bigger downlink transmission and based on according to UE RF chains and their corresponding coverings on different CC The CC that ability can cover, small―gap suture measurement gap pattern can be asked to eNB.Alternately or in addition, according to specific CC The expectation of the continuous downlink transmission at place or one or more RF chains of the specific CC combinations of covering, UE 1603 can not be indicated Or request measurement gap.Measurement gap pattern it is any other combination can according to UE abilities as discussed herein and framework come Realize, promote or reconfigure.

In other embodiments, some UE (for example, 1603) can have one or more RF chains, such as same with supporting When double RF chains (for example, 402,404) of down-link reception, a RF chain 402 or different UE (for example, 112 and 1603) in Different CC coverings between uncrosslinking chain, it can be indicated by the UE abilities in 1604 CC data acquisition systems.Accordingly it is also possible to UE abilities are reported to eNB 1603 or other ND with CC data acquisition systems at communication signaling 1604, so as to receive the measurement of each RF chains Clearance mode reconfigures instruction to relevant parameter or related to measurement gap pattern.Therefore, for the specific of UE 1603 The particular measurement clearance mode of RF chains (for example, 402 or 404), UE 1603 may not require measurement gap or using less frequently Measurement gap pattern.

In another embodiment, eNB 1606 can be operated dynamically to match somebody with somebody measurement group pattern or measurement gap again Put some CC (rather than other CC), and ability of the measurement gap based on specific CC, the UE 1603 for example serviced, Or from UE it is any other feedback and it is different.Therefore, it is shown and described herein that being matched somebody with somebody again by measurement gap configuration data Measurement gap pattern and associated parameter are put or generate, to minimize the interruption to service or serving cell.

In addition, UE 1603 can also be reduced by the quantity of DL signal monitorings or the subframe transmitted by UL signals.Example Such as, can by the roundtrip communications between eNB 1601 and UE 1603 come dynamic configuration or reconfigure small―gap suture (NCSG) or Measurement gap duration and the other specification for realizing measurement gap pattern at UE 1603.

On the other hand, network or networking component (for example, via eNB 102) can configure existing measurement gap to UE. If UE 1603 with can support and meanwhile the covering with one or more different frequency bands or CC of down-link reception it is more In the RF chains of one, then UE can be responded at 1604 in such as support or support CC/ frequency bands data acquisition system is (for example, list, table Or other data acquisition systems) etc communication in provide as information.UE 1603 can be transmitted to eNB 102 and is directed to each RF The particular measurement clearance mode or relevant parameter or ability of chain/communication chain are used as the part as its framework.Therefore, example Such as, UE 1603 be not necessarily required to a measurement gap pattern or configuration rather than another, compared with specific RF chains 404 for spy Determine RF chains 402 to use using less frequently or more frequently measurement gap pattern or for another chain or the set of RF chains Different measurement gap patterns.UE 1603 then remain able to meet for specific CC measurement request, for for example based on Each CC further network operation.

With reference to figure 17-20, the different embodiments supported response or support CC data acquisition systems are shown.In some cases, The measurement gap enhancing for introducing single Rx chains can be beneficial and feasible.This includes but is not limited to the increase of UE dispatchers meeting Or the reduction of UE power consumptions.For simultaneously operating, surveyed with the one or more of the measurement gap length (MGL) with reduction It can be feasible and beneficial to measure the corresponding measurement gap configuration of clearance mode.In addition, it is directed to various measurement gaps or spy Location survey amount clearance mode, by realizing that it is various that measurement gap pattern configurations based on each component carrier/be reconfigured to provide Advantage.

In (MGRP) is configured based on each CC measurement gap, MGRP can be directed to each CC by separate configurations.This bag Include the situation that wherein measurement gap is configured for some CC but is not configured for other CC.For example, when between each CC measurements Gap configuration is configured as reducing when Ack/Nack Loss Rates caused by PCell/SCell/PSCell is interrupted, Ke Yi Small―gap suture or NCSG are introduced or selected in MGRP.

For example, Figure 17 shows the CC data that eNB 114 can be sent to as a part for Figure 16 communication 1604 Set 1700.CC data acquisition systems show up to 32 or can be with increased various frequency bands or CC, as discussed herein.Each CC can be with UE abilities (for example, whether given frequency band (communicate) chain support and to what degree by UE specific RF；Or with Other abilities of the related description field of measurement gap pattern, parameter, selection；Or other UE feedbacks) be instructed to together.Each CC It can correspond to whether need or require the instruction of measurement gap.In some cases, continuous data download or downlink Transmission can be desired or possible, without realizing gap duration or gap period.In other cases, specific CC It can not be supported or be adequately coated by the one or more RF chains operated together.

In response to receiving CC data acquisition systems, eNB (for example, 1601) can be by signaling and particular measurement gap program Associated measurement gap pattern configurations or parameter are reconfigured to be responded, such as whether specific CC is configured between measurement Gap or no measurement gap.For example, specific CC (such as CC can be directed to₁、CC₃Or another CC_i, wherein i is positive integer) and generation Or gap is provided, but other CC (such as CC₂、CC₃₂Or another CC of particular index) can indicate not require, it is expected or Select measurement gap.As response, eNB 1601 can realize that the continuous data on the CC for not requiring measurement gap are downloaded, As it is appreciated that UE 1603 can fully measure these channels or CC with UE abilities or communication chain and need not survey Gap or specific duration are measured, measurement gap will not be utilized until transmitting another 1604 instructions these CC of reconfiguring.

Referring now to Figure 18, show according to the another of the CC data acquisition systems 1800 of described various aspects or embodiment Example.Specifically, when UE 1603 is configured with carrier aggregation capacity as a part for UE abilities or including can be simultaneously When carrying out one or more RF chains of down-link reception, can be realized at each RF communication chains the configuration of different measurement gaps or There is no measurement gap.This can including each CC for example corresponding with each RF chains different types of gap, gap period, Clearance offsets or gap duration.

CC data sets 1800 can include UE abilities and with certain types of gap or the finger of measurement gap duration Show corresponding specific CC frequency bands.For example, long gap, short air gap or gapless can be designated as corresponding from different CC.Example Such as, compared with long gap can be compared with small―gap suture long-term gap or with standard 3GPP or other gaps specified Duration or length compare long-term gap.For example, CC data acquisition systems 1800 show CC₁Or another CC_iCan have There is long gap.Such as CC₂And CC₃₂Etc other CC can indicate not needing measurement gap, and in CC₃In the case of for example Measurement of short (small) gap for the specific CC can be required.As response, for each CC different measurement gap patterns With the corresponding RF chain of the part as UE abilities, eNB 1601 can realize that different measurement gaps are matched somebody with somebody in reconfiguring 1606 Put.

With reference to figure 19, show and shown according to the another of CC data acquisition systems 1900 of described various aspects or embodiment Example.When UE 1603 is configured with carrier aggregation capacity as a part for UE abilities or including that can carry out descending chain simultaneously , can be at each RF communication chains (for example, 402 or 404) place according to each RF communication chains during one or more RF chains that road receives Specific one or more CC at place realize different measurement gap configurations or without measurement gaps.This can include for example with each RF The corresponding each CC of chain different types of gap, gap period, clearance offsets or gap duration, and with it is each The different measurement gap patterns that RF chains or corresponding operating frequency band are associated.CC data sets 1900 can include UE abilities and with spy Determine type measurement gap pattern (for example, with measurement gap pattern 300,500,800,900 or as discussed herein other classes The associated measurement gap pattern of antitype, and corresponding measurement gap configuration, corresponding information element or associated parameter) Indicate corresponding specific CC frequency bands.

In addition, compared with other measurement gap patterns, various groups of CC are also can indicate that for some measurement gap patterns Close.Various CC (such as CC₁And CC_i) it can be designated that there is identical measurement gap pattern, and with some UE abilities (for example, covering The specific RF chains (for example, 402 or other equipment) of frequency band or CC in lid same frequency range) it is used in combination.Other CC can To be designated that there is other measurement gap patterns, such as CC₂With particular measurement clearance mode Y, CC₃With another different survey Clearance mode Z is measured, it can also correspond to or do not correspond to UE 1603 or other UE RF chains 402,404 or other chains or processing The various UE abilities of component.In addition, CC₃₂It may indicate that no measurement gap or pattern.

With reference to figure 20, show and shown according to the another of CC data acquisition systems 2000 of described various aspects or embodiment Example.In this example, eNB 1601 can be indicated to by UE 1603 similar to described other CC data sets, CC, to incite somebody to action Measurement gap pattern configurations parameter or measurement gap pattern configured in one piece reconfigure to corresponding with specific RF chains each UE.In addition, some CC groups can also be instructed in CC data acquisition systems 2000, so as to organizing specific CC and particular measurement gap Pattern/configuration is associated or is not associated completely.For example, CC groups 1 can include multiple CC, including it is chosen or is indicated to CCs of the eNB 1601 as particular measurement gap configuration that is optimal or being suitable for particular measurement clearance mode₁、CC₂And CC₃, and Other CC groups (for example, CC group M) can be with other CC (such as CC_iOr other) associated.Other CC are (for example, CC₃₂) can be right Should be in very close to each other.Therefore, when UE 1603 or other UE are configured with carrier aggregation capacity, UE 1603 can according to will The gap configuration asked is reconfigured to send or creates the CC data acquisition system corresponding with the CC groups of network or instruction.Each CC Group can be indicated as being based on each frequency band, wherein being not excluded for the other standards or rule for defining specific CC groups.
